I'm having trouble mounting my USB mass storage devices with my linux
2.6.6 kernel. I have the hotplug support compiled into my kernel and
the hotplug script, /etc/rc.d/rc.hotplug seems to be working fine.
What happens when I do a 'cdrecord -scanbus', I can see that my USB
device does get registered as a valid SCSI device and appropriately
assigned something like 0,0,0 ... and the manufacturer is listed and
all that. But when I try and mount the thing as 'mount -t vfat
/dev/sda1 /mnt/usb, I keep getting a message that /dev/sda1 is not a
valid block device. I also tried other devices such as /dev/sdb1,
sdc1... but same results. I was able to earlier get these things
mounted after rebooting the machine with the device already plugged in
but now that doesn't work anymore. I dohave to admit I moved this all
over to a new mother board with new hardware so that could complicate
things a bit but still, How can I figure out the linkage between the
valid USB mass storage device, SCSI and a valid mount device?
